138: Cloud Supervisor
Liu Xiaolin walked into the workshop and asked the Minister of Technology, "How is the progress recently? What step are we at?"
"General Manager Liu, the progress is very smooth. We have completed the installation of the orbital vehicle. Our orbital vehicle is quite different from ordinary vehicles. Our orbital vehicle is much larger, with a length of 55.88 meters, a height of 20.46 meters, and a wingspan of 34.69 meters. The front is the vehicle cockpit, where the pilots work. The cockpit is divided into three levels: the main cabin, the lounge cabin, and the rest cabin, accommodating six pilots for work and rest simultaneously. The middle is the passenger cabin, which is also divided into three levels, similar in layout to the cockpit but much larger in volume, as our passenger cabin can accommodate twenty tourists at a time. The rear end is the warehouse, which can carry 10 tons of items, intended for storing supplies for the pilots and tourists' food, clothing, shelter, and transportation during the flight."
Minister of Technology Niu De is an old space veteran in his fifties. Liu Xiaolin put in a lot of effort to invite him; saying he visited him three times is not an exaggeration.
He explained everything in great detail because he followed the progress daily, working meticulously under the eyes of tens of millions of online supervisors, so every little detail was very precise, like recounting his family treasures.
Liu Xiaolin looked at the behemoth in front of him and felt very emotional: The power of humanity is truly great! In just two months, such a high-end behemoth could be researched and developed into shape. It's truly remarkable.
"What is the next work arrangement? Can we complete the task according to our scheduled plan?" Liu Xiaolin was very concerned about this question, after all, he had boasted in front of the netizens.
"In the next month, we will complete the research and manufacturing of the external fuel tank and solid rocket boosters. There should be no problem," Niu De said confidently.
This research and development was both a challenge and a learning opportunity for him, because by following the design blueprints provided by Liu Xiaolin, he could learn too many things. Many concepts were heard for the first time, which not only solved many previous problems but also made many predictions for future voyages. It can be said that this is a perfect design blueprint.
"That's good, thank you for your hard work. Will the daily live streaming of the research and development process cause you any trouble?" Liu Xiaolin was a little worried that working under such supervision might displease Niu De.
"No, not at all. Sometimes when I have free time, I even chat with netizens for a while," Niu De said with a smile. "Sometimes they also offer suggestions, such as arranging a few charging ports under the seats, ensuring full WiFi coverage. I can still fulfill these small requests. When I tell them that relevant improvements have been made, they are incredibly happy, saying that they are also one of the designers of the Civilian 1.0 Space Shuttle. I really like these adorable young people; they make me feel the joy of creation during the tedious research and development process."
While the two were chatting, netizens started sending bullet comments in the live stream again.
"Engineer Niu, hello, I'm here again."
"Oh, General Manager Liu is here today too. I have to say a tongue twister to celebrate. From the south came Engineer Niu, from the north came General Manager Liu. Engineer Niu extended his hand to shake General Manager Liu's, General Manager Liu extended his hand to shake Engineer Niu's. General Manager Liu and Engineer Niu smiled, not fierce at all."
"Hahahaha, this tongue twister is too interesting, I'm impressed."
Liu Xiaolin also saw the tongue twister and said with a big laugh, "Netizens are so talented! It seems our future interstellar travel won't be lonely; it will definitely be lively every day."
Niu De also said with a smile, "When I'm tired every day, I chat with them. When they joke, I don't feel tired anymore."
"I didn't expect this live stream could also have a refreshing effect, haha." Liu Xiaolin hadn't imagined the live stream could have such a good effect.
"Engineer Niu, is the orbital vehicle completed today? Are we starting the research and development of the booster or the fuel tank tomorrow?" Many netizens were already very familiar with the manufacturing process of the space shuttle.
"Hello everyone, we are starting the research and development of the fuel tank today. You all supervise well," Niu De said with a smile.
The fuel tank is a large external tank, divided into two parts: the hydrogen storage tank and the oxygen storage tank. The front is the oxygen storage tank, with a volume of 620 cubic meters, capable of storing 750 tons of oxygen. The rear is the hydrogen storage tank, with a volume of 1960 cubic meters, capable of storing 350 tons of hydrogen. Of course, both hydrogen and oxygen are liquid. m.x33xs.com
Niu De suddenly thought of a question: "General Manager Liu, purchasing such a large amount of liquid hydrogen and liquid oxygen is a problem. Can private enterprises buy such large quantities of liquid hydrogen and liquid oxygen?"
Liu Xiaolin said with a smile, "It's okay, you don't need to worry. As long as you complete the manufacturing of the fuel tank, I can get that much liquid hydrogen and liquid oxygen."
Niu De gave a thumbs-up and praised, "General Manager Liu is young and promising, truly amazing!"
The netizens in front of the screen saw Niu De praising Liu Xiaolin and also started liking madly.
Liu Xiaolin thought to himself: How am I young and promising? I'm just relying on the convenience brought by the Strongest Manufacturing System. Last night, the Strongest Manufacturing System already prompted me that the liquid hydrogen and liquid oxygen are ready, just waiting for the fuel tank to be manufactured before delivery.
With the assistance of the Strongest Manufacturing System, Liu Xiaolin was full of confidence at this moment. There was no difficulty that the Strongest Manufacturing System could not help complete, because in the parallel world, the Strongest Manufacturing System had already overcome the difficulties that were still unknown here.
Liu Xiaolin naturally wanted to maximize the utilization of the scientific research achievements in the Strongest Manufacturing System to contribute to the technological progress and development of this world.
Netizens on the screen started all sorts of 'rainbow farts' praising Liu Xiaolin.
"General Manager Liu is truly amazing. Not only is he a military genius, but he can also easily accomplish things others cannot."
"That's right, young hero Liu Xiaolin, a role model for our generation!"
"From now on, I have to find a husband like Liu Xiaolin, who has ideals, ambitions, and capability. Oh, I love him to death."
"Look at you, a young girl, acting as an online supervisor at the space shuttle manufacturing site every day. Those who know understand you love the space industry, but those who don't might think you just want to see General Manager Liu every day."
"Can't I just watch? In the adult world, you don't have to choose, it's all in!"
Ten days later, Niu De looked at the fuel tank filled with liquid hydrogen and liquid oxygen and smiled contentedly.
Fifteen days later, the solid rocket boosters were completed, and everyone was excited.
This indicated that the research and manufacturing of the Civilian 1.0 Space Shuttle had reached its final stage!
